Real men fly single engine fighters. No need for the crutch of 2 engines. :p  :D

Since I've never seen a bomber formation I didn't want to attack, the best plane has to be the Yak9-T :aok

My best K/D ratio was in a -T (6 to 1)

P40E - Fun to fly and tougher than a boiled owl.

 2nd place goes to the TBM for versatility

Correct. The F4U-4 is clearly the best prop fighter in the game.

Dont listen to Dan, the 38G aka "Stevie Wonder Special" is not a good plane simply because its OD. :D

The only plane to fly is the 38J or 38L.  Both are fast and can take any plane thrown at it.  Only plane that can give a 38 pilot a tough time is a good 109 pilot or a good hog pilot.  Also you got 2 of everything on a 38 so if you take damage you always got a spare.  That gun package on the 38 is one of the best in the game with 2000 rounds of 50 cal and 150 rounds of 20mm.  The fuel on the 38 is good as well with full tank of gas can get about 35 minutes.  A well flown 38 pilot is a tough challenge for any plane.

well there are 3 that I have in mind the first one is the P-38J because it has the firepower and speed but too wide of a canopy easy pilot wounds. the nexta irplane I would have to use is the P-51D because it is a great defence fughter it an withstand a lot of bullets and it gives them back but my alltime favorite fighter has got to be the 190A-8 it is capable of killing taks and easily taking wing off other fighters it handels the best at high speed wich it can out turn alot of fighter at 350+ that I belive is the bes fighter

If you have to ask then there is no point in telling you the answer - it wouldn't do you any good.
